Breitling has introduced the Endurance Pro IRONMAN, a new limited-edition timepiece. This watch commemorates the 2024 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship, an event highly anticipated in the triathlon community. The championship will take place in Nice, France, and Kailua-Kona, Hawai‘i.
Honoring Endurance and Precision
Designed for athletes who push their limits, the Endurance Pro IRONMAN serves as an ideal companion for extreme sports enthusiasts. The IRONMAN triathlon, known as one of the world’s toughest endurance races, requires participants to undergo months of intense training. Since 2021, Breitling has partnered with IRONMAN, reflecting a shared commitment to precision and durability.
Key Design Features
Breitling constructed the Endurance Pro IRONMAN from lightweight titanium, which is 2.2 times lighter than stainless steel. This choice ensures both durability and comfort. The blue rubber strap adds to its resilience, making it perfect for the toughest conditions. The IRONMAN logo, inspired by the race itself, is prominently displayed at 6 o’clock on the watch face, symbolizing the determination and renewal associated with the triathlon.
The logo’s design reflects the theme of the 2024 VinFast IRONMAN World Championship, “new life” or “‘Ola Hou” in Hawaiian. It features the ama‘u plant, representing resilience and renewal, alongside elements that evoke the natural beauty of Hawai‘i and southern France.
Built for Performance
Breitling equipped the Endurance Pro IRONMAN with the COSC-certified SuperQuartz™ caliber 82 movement, offering exceptional accuracy. The watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters, making it suitable for both aquatic and land-based activities. Additionally, it includes a timekeeping chronograph and a solar compass, which are essential tools for athletes navigating challenging environments.
